Lovely news tanith. 
My daughter was seen at home by the midwife this afternoon - and sent off to the hospital for foetal monitoring as she (the midwife) thought the baby's heartbeat was very slow. Even though the hospital had been telephoned we still waited over an hour to be seen, which I'm sure contributed to daughter's raised blood pressure. Still, eventually all was well and she is now back at home. This is my relieved face: 
Oh Ga it's just one worry after another, I hope she keeps well 
Lovely news, tanith 
ga Glad all is well.
Gorki - welcome if you are new to posting. Great news and something lovely to look forward to in the gloomy days of winter. Yes, you are very lucky to be so involved in the lives of your grandchildren.
Gorki How lovely for you. Having family so close is such a bonus. 600 miles separate us from the youngest grandchild. Never mind, we get to visit as often as we can. Where there's a will... A very warm welcome to Gransnet.
That's great Gorki. I look forward to hearing much more of you. We are a friendly crowd and sometimes a little bit whimsical, or should I say crazy? If there are arguments, well, that's just the grit in the oyster that makes the pearl that is G'net.
Welcome Gorki , hope you enjoy it here , can be fun !
Pollyann, I've just read your post about your grandchild that's due next month. You must be so excited! You say that it's hoped that the baby's going to be a boy - and that your son-in-law's mother is old-fashioned. It's lovely that you feel as you do - a baby is a joy and brings such love along with it. Whether this little person is a girl or a boy it will be cherished, I'm sure.
pollyann Welcome to GN, keep sharing and you will get into stride! I didn't even look at this thread (because unless something happens between now and March) I'm not expecting any grandbabies this year! But I've now read everyone's wonderful news and am amazed at the explosion of little people being grown.
On pins today! Son and partner have been at the maternity hospital since yesterday afternoon, as she keeps feeling sick and having pains, and now she's on a drip because she's a little dehydrated. Three false alarms in as many days. Baby due in 12 days, but now they're waiting for the consultant to decide whether to deliver now or not. It's a planned c-section. My patience is wearing thin with excitement and anticipation
when - any time now, then! I can imagine how you're feeling!
Grannydougs - wonderful news!
when, we're all waiting with you.
when oh how exciting
At least she's being monitored all the time, when. The little one will will make its way here when it's ready!
when Best for mum and baby to be where professional help is at hand. I'm excited for you.
